His Broken Heart: A Storytime Short/Reader Requested Love Story, #2

By Kristy K. James

Assigned to his twelfth-grade creative writing class, Christina had taken aspiring author, Randy Hanson under her wing. No one had been more supportive when he'd written and submitted his first novel to a world-renowned publishing house. And no one had celebrated with him more when, to everyone's surprise, he'd been offered a contract.

 

Beautiful and sweet, and everything he'd ever dreamed of in a woman, he'd fallen hard. When he'd professed his love for her though, she hadn't been able to see past the fact that he wasn't even out of high school, while she was ready to graduate from college. So, she walked away after he professed his love – and moved across the country. He moved to the opposite coast, wanting to put as much distance between them as possible.

A decade later, he's a famous author and back home for a book signing. Christina is back too. Now, not only does she own the local paper, she's going to be at the bookstore, covering the story of a local boy who hit the bigtime.

 

Too bad for her that Randy doesn't plan to give her the time of day.

Reader Requested Stories

Every now and again, Kristy K. James offers to write reader requested short stories – if fans provide her with a couple of names and a few details. Of course, they know that all suggestions must fit into the clean and wholesome category, have serious romance potential, and – above all – send the hero and heroine on the winding, sometimes rocky road to their very own happily-ever-after!

‘His Broken Heart’ is the result of Valerie’s request.

The two characters names: Christina Hall and Randy Hanson. Randy and Christina lived in the same town, became friends, and found out they both had a passion for writing. They became extremely close, but since Randy was a teenager and Christina a handful of years older at the time...nothing more became of it. Fast forward ten to fifteen years, and after losing track of each other, they meet again. Randy is now all-grown up and a popular author, and the relationship goes from friendship to something a bit more as they get reacquainted.

Hope you enjoy reading His Broken Heart as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Whoever said you can’t go home again was right, Randy
